The Annual Report 2016

The Annual Report 2016

Today, the annual report on the Royal House’s activities in 2016 is published.

The annual report explains the Royal House’s finances in 2016 and reviews the royal family’s official activities and other doings in a number of areas such as business and culture, humanitarian and social initiatives, sport and health, the defence, research and education as well as foundation and award distributions.

2016 was the year in which HM The Queen visited the Faroe Islands, The Crown Prince Couple went on a business promotional campaign in the USA, and TRH Prince Joachim and Princess Marie were together with The Crown Prince Couple at The Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. In 2016, the Royal House entered social media with official pages on Facebook and Instagram, and kongehuset.dk was also relaunched.

As a new feature in the annual report for 2016, there is an opportunity to dive down into the activities of the royal family through seven theme articles, which deal with, among other things, HM The Queen’s work to craft a new antependium for Wittenberg Castle Church and HRH The Crown Prince’s focus on connecting Danish entrepreneurs and the business community.
